So surprised [about the appointment].“But who else is out there? Robbie Keane. He keeps getting overlooked for some reason. He’s done a fantastic job in the places he’s been. I think you’re looking, and he gets overlooked by Celtic all the time, and this time by Tottenham when potentially, it could have been a good fit.”Tudor bullish about Spurs’ survival chancesAhead of the North London derby, Tudor boldly stated that he is confident Tottenham will not be relegated this season.When asked about it again, the Spurs interim coach clarified that he prefers not to think about outcomes in the league table and focus on the team’s performances.However, the 47-year-old may be slightly more worried after seeing his side deliver a meek performance against Arsenal, with Tudor admitting he was angered by his side’s display in the derby.READ MORE: Harry Redknapp admits he would have ‘loved’ to manage Tottenham one more timeThe post Wayne Rooney hints Tottenham overlooked 324-goal striker as next manager appeared first on Spurs Web.
